House and Senate Democrats call for Special Counsel Mueller to appear on Capitol Hill 'as soon as possible.'
"Even in its incomplete form, the Mueller report outlines disturbing evidence that President Trump engaged in obstruction of justice and other misconduct," House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., told reporters in New York.
Asked if holding Trump accountable means impeachment, Nadler said,"That's one possibility — there are others." Democratic leaders Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York said in a joint statement that the report does not match what Barr has said about its conclusions.
Nadler sent a letter to Mueller on Thursday requesting that he testify about the report before Congress “as soon as possible” or “in any event, no later than May 23, 2019,” tweeting that lawmakers"need to hear directly from special counsel Mueller and receive the full, unredacted report with the underlying evidence.
